In addition to a communal television editorial office with supplies mainly to the central editorial office of ARD aktuell in Hamburg , the Berlin radio correspondents of all state broadcasters and correspondents of some third-party television programs for their local news programs are housed in the building. The correspondents mainly prepare their contributions for their home editorial offices in the individual ARD stations. In doing so, they can fall back on a fully digitized system that makes it possible, for example, to transfer finished radio reports in seconds from the capital city studio to the report pool of an ARD broadcaster, where it can be broadcast immediately in the current program without any further effort.

Around 70 journalists produce contributions for their home stations in the ARD capital studio (as of the end of 2012). In addition, the report from Berlin is broadcast from the large TV studio A with a corner window on Sundays at 6:05 p.m. There are also special broadcasts from the studio on the Spree for elections, party conferences, state visits or current federal political events, including ARD hot spots or show colors . The news and events channel Phoenix also regularly produces the Phoenix Runde there and the ARD morning magazine broadcasts interviews from Studio A.

The building stands on the area of ​​the Institute for Physics (part of the building of the Natural Science and Medical Institutes of the Royal University of Berlin ) of the then Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität , built for Hermann von Helmholtz in 1877/1878, also known as the "Palace of Physics" because of its dimensions. As a result, many other important physicists conducted research there, including James Franck , Gustav Hertz , Walther Nernst , Max Planck and Wilhelm Wien , whose work is commemorated by a plaque that was unveiled on April 16, 1999. The institute building was destroyed at the end of the Second World War and the ruins were cleared . The building was designed by the architects O&O Baukunst , the building owners' association consisted of SFB and WDR .
